Comment on When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child

OP here.

I’m a bachelor with a lucrative career, which has resulted in a good amount of free time and funny money. I treat my nostalgia collections like an archive and get a great deal of enjoyment from tending to them.

The only typical milestone I think I skipped was homeownership, because I lived like a vagabond a good deal of my adult life.

Right now the only thing I genuinely feel is missing, is an exercise routine.

Right now the only thing I genuinely feel is missing that would increase my happiness, is an exercise routine.

I’ll put in a plug for cycling. You can nerd out over the latest bike gear, restore vintage bikes, or just pay the nice folks at your local bike shop to set you up and focus on the riding, it’s up to you!

You can also ride “unplugged,” or you can measure speed, cadence, heart rate, even power output (if you spend $$$)—again, something for everyone!

Good luck!

  I don’t know, I’m not sure if I wanna be biking around town with something in my ass.

    The cadence and heart rate sensors are usually not inserted into the body. The issue could also be that you need a different type of seat.

First of all, congrats! What about the wife and kids, you know, childrearing and community building, you got any plans regarding that? Or are you still too young (in that case, double congrats lol) to be thinking about these things?

  I’m not a spring chicken anymore, let’s just put it that way.
  
  I’ve never wanted children. I also realized a handful of years ago, that I’m happier and healthier when I’m not in long-term romantic relationships. I’ve got friends, immediate family in neighboring cities, and two cats. That’s more than enough company for me.

    To each their own. NGL, I wish I had a bit more disposable income to put into some of my hobbies… but I’m happy some of us can. 👍
